MIAMI - A lawyer for a former University of Miami pitching coach is seeking a wide range of Major League Baseball records for the coachs upcoming trial on illegal performance-enhancing drug distribution charges, including details of an immunity deal given to the New York Yankees Alex Rodriguez.Frank Quintero Jr. wants a federal judge to order MLB and the Miami U.S. attorneys office to turn over the records for the defence of the ex-coach, Lazaro Laser Collazo, in the case centred on the now-closed Biogenesis of America clinic. Quintero claims in a motion filed Thursday that his previous requests for the documents have been refused.The documents, Quintero said in court papers, go directly to the heart of the charges against Mr. Collazo and could show how much MLB has influenced his prosecution — allegedly by paying witnesses, buying stolen documents and influencing witness testimony.The full extent of MLBs involvement in the present investigation and the prosecution of Mr. Collazo is yet unknown, Quintero said.MLB said in a statement Friday: We have no comment beyond that there is absolutely no truth to these claims.A three-time AL MVP, Rodriguez served a season-long suspension this year for violating MLBs drug agreement and labour contract. He has admitted to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration he used steroids provided by Biogenesis and its former owner, Anthony Bosch, according to court documents.Rodriguez is expected to testify against Collazo and others if the trial goes forward as scheduled Feb. 9. Quintero said details about A-Rods immunity deal with prosecutors are important to the defence.Eight other current or former players, including Manny Ramirez, Ryan Braun, Nelson Cruz and Melky Cabrera also have been given immunity.Bosch, who pleaded guilty and is awaiting sentencing, was given a number of benefits by MLB in exchange for his co-operation. Court documents show these include paying his attorneys fees, protecting him from any player lawsuits and paying for bodyguards at up to $2,400 a day.In his motion, Quintero said evidence has surfaced through discovery provided so far that MLB provided Bosch with other benefits, such as more than $30,500 in child support payments and an undefined consulting job.Also facing trial in February with Collazo is Yuri Sucart, a cousin of Rodriguezs, and others accused of supplying testosterone and human growth hormone to MLB players and other athletes, including minors. The defendants have pleaded not guilty.Prosecutors have said Rodriguez has prominent role in the governments proof against Sucart.___AP Sports Writer Ronald Blum in New York contributed to this report.___Follow Curt Anderson on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Miamicurt Nike Air Max 1 Rebajas .

ATLANTA -- Now thats more like it for the Seattle Seahawks. Shaking off some sluggish performances, the Seahawks put it all together against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Russell Wilson threw a pair of touchdowns passes, Marshawn Lynch ran for 145 yards and Seattle romped to a 33-10 victory in a one-sided rematch of last seasons playoffs. "Its the best game weve played," coach Pete Carroll said. The first-place Seahawks (9-1 for the first time in franchise history), who lead the NFC race for home field, had looked especially vulnerable the past two weeks while struggling to beat lowly St. Louis and winless Tampa Bay. No worries this time. It was over by halftime. With a lightning-quick spurt at the end of the second quarter, capped by Wilsons touchdown pass to Golden Tate with 1 second remaining, Seattle went to the break with a 23-3 lead. "Were excited for the future. We have something special," Tate said. "Now weve set the standard and we want to consistently play this sort of ballgame." The Falcons trailed 6-3 after Matt Bryants 53-yard field goal with 6 1/2 minutes left in the half, but Seattle seized control with three big plays in a row, including a bit of trickery that caught Atlanta off guard. With the Seahawks starting at their 20 after a touchback, Lynch immediately broke off a 37-yard run into Falcons territory. On the next play, Wilson handed off to Lynch, who passed the ball back to the quarterback. Wilson threw it deep to Jermaine Kearse, who hauled in the 43-yard touchdown pass over Thomas DeCoud to stretch the Seahawks advantage to 13-3. After the Falcons went three-and-out, Wilson hooked up with Tate on a short pass that turned into a 46-yard gain. So, on three consecutive snaps, Seattle ripped off 126 yards. Tates reception led to the third of Steven Hauschkas four field goals. Atlanta went three-and-out again, and Tate set up another scoring chance with a 32-yard punt return in front of the Seahawks bench. In the final minute of the half, Wilson drove Seattle down the field for the decisive score. It took a gutsy call by Carroll, who decided to take a shot at the end zone on third-and-5 from the Atlanta 6 with 8 seconds remaining and no timeouts. Wilson loofted the pass into the left corner, and Tate made a brilliant one-handed catch while managing to drag both feet inside the line, just in the nick of time.dddddddddddd The Falcons (2-7) lost for the sixth time in seven games, a team that once had Super Bowl aspirations now just two defeats away from its first losing season since 2007. Matt Ryan was held to 172 yards passing, while Steven Jackson managed just 11 yards rushing on nine carries. Roddy White returned to the Falcons lineup after missing the past month with ankle and hamstring injuries, but one catch for 20 yards hardly sparked the offence. Seattle finished with a dominating 490-226 lead in total yards. "It was tough sledding out there," White said. "Not how we wanted it to go." This was a complete reversal of the playoff game last January, in which Atlanta led 20-0 at the half and was still up by 20 early in the fourth before Wilson led what appeared to be a historic comeback, putting the Seahawks ahead 28-27 with less than a minute remaining. The Falcons bounced back with two long passes and Bryants field goal for a 30-28 victory that sent Atlanta to the NFC championship game. That game seems so long ago. These Falcons finally scored a touchdown -- just their third in the past three games -- late in the third quarter on Ryans 12-yard pass to rookie Darius Johnson on fourth down. The Seahawks wrapped it up with a 12-play, 80-yard drive that took more than 7 minutes off the clock. Lynch, appropriately, finished it off with a 1-yard touchdown run that sent what remained of the Georgia Dome crowd hustling to the exits. The rest hung around to cheer for the Seahawks. NOTES: Tate finished with 106 yards on six receptions. ... Seattle CB Brandon Browner (groin) left in the second quarter. DT Tony McDaniel (hamstring) left in the third quarter. Neither returned. ... The Falcons played again without OT Sam Baker (knee), who missed his fifth game of an injury plagued season. ... Falcons TE Tony Gonzalez extended his streak to 204 games with at least one catch when he hauled in a 9-yard pass in the third quarter. ... After the game, the soon-to-be-retired Gonzalez swapped jerseys with Seahawks CB Richard Sherman. ' ' '
